It's not pointless. A lot of people were forced to stay at home for work and school and many of those didn't have the infrastructure to support that, so a lot of people had to buy air conditioning, computers, tablets, webcams, microphones and other things they would sort out at work that now had to be done at home. Webcams and graphics cards in particular were wiped out of the supply chain for a few months and many products that are still in high demand continue to be non-existant.

It can re-tune the transmission if it’s capable, but if the transmission is broken you still need a mechanic to fix it.

I own a trucking company and deal with the port on a daily basis. The issue is not the lack of trucks or drivers. The issue is the fact that the ocean carriers are not willing to take more empty containers back to China. If there was a lack of trucks, why is there a line of trucks waiting to get into the port? There should be no lines of trucks waiting if there were no trucks! A driver waits all day to take an empty container to the port. The port is not taking empty containers back fast enough. The less empty containers there are in China, more money the vessel lines make. The lower the supply of empty containers in China, the greater is the demand for containers. Now the government will charge $100 per day up to 9 days then increase the fee by $100 per day. The government is NOT helping with the situation; they are encouraging the port to slow down so they can make more money with the fees. We pay thousands in demurrage fees caused by the port inability to issue appointments for empty containers to be returned which create the lack of chassis to take full containers out the port. The solution is to accept empty containers without appointment and stop with the non-sense of dual transactions. If there is no space for empty containers, then start stacking the empty containers at the airport property and release chassis to go get loaded containers out the port!

I have been working at the Seattle Tacoma ports for 9 years as a truck driver let me tell something about Seattle ports. 1. T-5 is closed 2. T-46 is closed 3. T-30 is a backup terminal for T-18 only and they don't do anything and the terminal supervisor is an abusive guy. 4. T-18 opens at 7 am stops 10:00 am for a 30 break and then takes lunch 11:30 am and then they come back 1:15 pm, again another break at 3:00pm until 3:30pm and then they close at 4:15 pm. Now what has SSA done nothing break after break and Long lines inside out. 5. The constant abuse coming from LongSherman and the terminal operators has driven a lot of drivers to just pull one load out and disappear for days instead of pulling several loads out of the terminals a day. All the drivers had enough of the abuses from SSA. The backlog was created by terminal operators.

Container ships shouldn't be allowed to just "accidentally" dump containers in the ocean when the sea swells... Those things can be a death sentence to sailboats and other vessels navigating oceans who can see a container that just barely pokes above the water as it floats... Or are basically invisible past 10ft range during night time. Not to mention the potential pollution.

Problem here is do you eject containers or loose the ship and crew? no master wants to do either but if push comes to shove the containers are ejected first to save the lives of the crew and that's standard no matter what type of ship you sail on. I will also point out its actually a pretty rare occurrence to eject containers into the sea, mainly because most container ships don't actually have the means to eject them on their own it takes the forces of nature to do that. The containers you see coming in that are twisted and damaged are lashed and retained and its a mark of good seamanship that the ship can be quickly re ballasted to make up for the imbalance and continue to a port.

Nothing moves and it's real slow to it get back up and running again.

Labor shortages is only part of the problem. According to a truck driver cousin, a big part of the problem is that the port has blocked many non-union truck drivers from picking up freight. They used to pick up nearly half of the freight. The problem is that the Democrat party is beholden to unions.

Don't make sense if you have 50 ships arrive and you only got spots for 20 of them. Then it takes say 2 days to off load maybe longer. now you got 30 ships stuck waiting for someone to get done.

Electric ships will probably never happen unless we come up with some completely new battery technology. Ships have to cover long distances. There's nowhere to recharge in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. You would need enormous batteries, since they have to be able to supply full power for about 15 days without recharging. And they'd need to be able to recharge completely in 24-48 hours, since that's about how long it takes to load and unload a container ship. Alternative fuels like LNG (if made from biological sources) and methanol, and eventually nuclear power are the most likely carbon-neutral technologies for shipping in the future.

@@angelgjr1999 The consumers are still there, the need to labor for a piece of the pie is what fades away. We just need to rethink and restructure the economic system from the ground up to accommodate a world where most of the work is done for us. The capitalist mindset from yesterday is limiting our progress toward tomorrow.

@Reckless Ron Right.. I am sure you are quite the nautical engineer... you understand sheer force....you understand ship stability.. hell you probably understand how ships need to tac against the wind.. or why when storms come they have to drop sail to avoid being capsized or losing propulsion permanently. Prehaps we an use oars like a Roman gally as backup...complete with slave labor.

Never mentioned is that these containers are moved by truck from the port to trains some distance away. Why not run the trains through the ports eliminating the truck transfers?

Everybody talking about how huge would be the impact of container ships jamming around the world, NOBODY talks about the seafarers STUCK on board that ship's that can't go back home nor join the ship's, because of COVID pandemic and, despite the UN have declared us "vital key workers", we're still treated like animals. Stop talking about the objects only, start talking about US. We Are SEAMEN. We Are SEAFARERS. We Deserve RESPECT and to be CONSIDERED part of the Umanity.
